A town that has struggled for a long time with the different water-levels from the surrounding rivers and lakes... We enter near the northern flood control station...

I must admit, this looks very nice :) The last shot of the whole city is a nice overview, and almost makes it look like a scale model for a city in the planning. May I ask where I can find/download the buildings next to the avenue in the 6th screenshot down?
I'm looking forward to more :)

good journal, I like your attention to detail. I understand how hard it is to get every grid to the right angle but the result is amazing! The buildings all match each-other nicely however there is also a nice contrast in architecture. Nice CJ.

I'm happy you can appreciate that - I'm certainly not a stickler when it comes to mixing up any time period and any architectural style. I take 'em all, as long as they look good with everything else... ;-))

This looks like something I would see in Canada, a variety of architectures from different eras. Great work man!

Amazing! You're like my SimCity role-model, Paeng! :) I really like the layout also: the city seems to have spread "organically," much as you'd see in a real city.

It's fantastic how you've managed to combine so many different canal styles to create one large system. :)

It's amazing how many different styles of buildings and assorted canals you put in such small space! Could have looked a bit better if all canal sets had diagonals... I also love your railtracks and the way it splits

It's great to see wide radius rail curves and switches used by a master. Bravo, my friend.
